FAQs
How does SII reduce downtime in manufacturing environments?
We proactively monitor infrastructure, standardize processes across facilities, implement redundancy strategies, and respond rapidly to issues before they impact production.
Does SII support ERP and MRP systems?
Yes. We manage the infrastructure, network, and cloud environments that support ERP and MRP platforms to ensure consistent performance and system availability.
Can SII support multi-site manufacturing operations?
Yes. We centralize management, standardize security controls, and create documented procedures across all facilities to ensure consistent performance and coordinated operations.
What cybersecurity protections do you provide for manufacturers?
Do you provide 24/7 monitoring?
Yes. Manufacturing operations require constant up time. We provide proactive monitoring and rapid response to minimize production disruptions.
What should manufacturers look for in a managed IT provider?
Manufacturers should look for an MSP that understands uptime requirements, cybersecurity, network infrastructure, Microsoft environments, backup and disaster recovery, vendor coordination, compliance requirements, and the operational impact of technology disruptions.
Why are manufacturing companies targeted by cybercriminals?
Manufacturers often rely heavily on technology to maintain operations, making downtime potentially costly. Their environments can also include a combination of business systems, production technology, vendors, remote access, and legacy equipment, creating multiple areas that need to be secured.
Can an MSP help a manufacturer with CMMC?
An MSP can help organizations address the technology and cybersecurity controls involved in CMMC readiness, including areas such as identity, access, endpoint security, monitoring, documentation, backups, and Microsoft environments. The specific responsibilities should be clearly defined because using an MSP does not by itself make an organization CMMC compliant.
Can an MSP support both office IT and manufacturing technology?
It depends on the provider and environment. Manufacturers should clearly establish responsibility for corporate IT, networks, production systems, operational technology, vendors, cybersecurity, and equipment so there are no gaps in ownership.
